Chapter 649 Oasis Fund
Chapter 649 Oasis Fund
The next morning, after breakfast, Gates took Tang Ming to visit the Microsoft headquarters.
After sitting in the car and driving out of the 'big house', Gates said: "Don, maybe in two or three years, you will surpass me in wealth and become the new richest man in the world."
"I don't want to be the world's richest man." Tang Ming spread his hands, expressing that he has no interest in the title of world's richest man.
"If this time really comes, it's not a question of whether you want to be or not, unless you can perfectly hide part of your wealth." Gates said and complained, "Actually, there is nothing good about being the richest man in the world. Being put under the spotlight is less free than many celebrities."
"Then let you continue to be the richest man in the world. Anyway, you have been in the position for more than 20 years, and you already have a wealth of experience." Tang Ming laughed.
"It's not something I can decide. Of course, you can try to buy Forbes magazine and let them lower your wealth figures." Gates suggested.
"Forget it, let it take its course." Tang Ming shook his head and said.
After chatting for a while about the richest man in the world, Gates said frankly: "Don, you should have guessed that I am not only inviting you as a guest this time, but also for other purposes. I hope you don't take offense."
"I already guessed it, and I also guessed that it must have something to do with the pomegranate, right? Could it be that the US government wanted it?" Tang Ming asked.
"The U.S. government does want it, but I'm not their lobbyist," Gates said.
Gates' thinking is similar to that of most rich people in the United States. They regard the US government as a tool for profit, but they will not use the US government as a tool.
"Since you are not a lobbyist for the U.S. government, why do you want pomegranate?" Tang Ming asked suspiciously.
"Some friends and I set up an oasis fund to fund the transformation of deserts in some extremely poor countries, and this matter must be approved by you, otherwise it cannot be done." Gates said.
"Why do you do this? Is there any benefit to you economically or politically?" Tang Ming asked puzzled.
"There is no benefit. Although the Oasis Fund is not a charitable fund, it is also a non-profit. We just want to make a contribution to the world. If these poor countries do not have the support of foreign funds, they simply cannot afford to buy saffron seeds and nutrient solution ’” Gates said.
"Are you scolding me for selling the vodka seeds and nutrient solution too expensive?" Tang Ming asked with a smile.
"I didn't mean that. You are a normal business behavior and cannot be blamed." Gates said quickly.
"Just kidding, don't take it seriously," Tang Ming said.
After finishing speaking, Tang Ming fell silent, thinking quietly. He never thought that this was the reason why Gates invited him to come over as a guest. Since Gates and the others wanted to do good things, he had no reason to refuse, so he stated: "If If the Oasis Fund is really non-profit and has no political purpose, then I will definitely support you.”
"Thank you, Don." Gates said gratefully, "By the way, I also want to tell you one more thing. The Oasis Fund has already negotiated with President Duterte, and the price will be 30 Australian dollars per ton , and bought his share of [-] tons per month, of course, this still requires your approval."
"No problem, I agree." Tang Ming said, "I thought the share of the Philippines would be bought by Prince Asud, but I didn't expect it to fall into your hands. It seems that President Duterte has made a profit. 9000 million Australian dollars a month without doing anything, with this income, life in the Philippines is even more difficult for you Americans."
"I'm not interested in politics, and I'm even less interested in international politics, otherwise I would have run for president a long time ago." Gates shrugged and said.
They talked for a while about the Oasis Fund, and the team arrived at Microsoft headquarters in Redmond.
Microsoft's current chairman John Thompson and CEO Satya Nadella were waiting at the door. Gates introduced them to each other and took Tang Ming in for a tour.
After skimming through it, and having a working meal at the Microsoft headquarters, Tang Ming and Gates left.
"Don, where else do you want to see? I'll be your guide." Gates said.
"No, you're so busy, so I won't bother you. I'll go around America by myself," Tang Ming said.
"Well, I will send an assistant to accompany you, you can tell him where you want to go." Gates said.
"Thank you." Tang Ming said, "However, I really want to trouble you with something."
"What's the matter, just say it, you're welcome, you are my guest, in your Chinese language, I will make you feel at home." Gates said.
"It's about Xiaobai..." Tang Ming told Gates about Xiaobai's situation, and finally said sincerely, "This matter will trouble you."
"Okay, I'll try to help Xiaobai find a good guy." Gates didn't expect Tang Ming to make such a request, and agreed with difficulty, "But to be honest, Xiaobai is indeed bigger than the average male tiger, so it's hard to find one." Don't get your hopes up too much if it matches it."
"I know, but how will you know if you don't try it? What if you find the right one?" Tang Ming said.
……
Back at the 'big house', after Tang Ming said goodbye to Melinda, he left with [-] security personnel and assistants. He found a hotel in Seattle and stayed in a hotel. He planned to go around the United States tomorrow. .
Xiaobai and Hercules stayed at Gates' house, and Tang Ming left two assistants to take care of them.
At night, Tang Ming was wandering in downtown Seattle. He was accompanied only by Andy, two security personnel, and the assistant Corbett sent to him by Gates.
Other security personnel were scattered around to protect Tang Ming's safety.
Seattle, also known as Emerald City, Evergreen City, Emerald City and Queen City, is recognized as the city with the highest quality of life in the United States. The natural scenery here is beautiful and charming, and the air is fresh, which is indeed suitable for living.
"Andy, where do you think we should go first?" Tang Ming asked Andy while looking at the scenery while walking on the streets of Seattle.
"Me, the place I want to go the most is Las Vegas. I don't know if you like it, boss." Andy said.
"Las Vegas, the casino city, is indeed a good tourist destination." Tang Ming said, "Well, let's go to Las Vegas tomorrow."
Now that the decision was made, Tang Ming was not in the mood to go shopping anymore, and led everyone back to the hotel.
Back in the room, he called Gates' house first, and asked about Xiaobai and Hercules' situation. Tang Ming was relieved when he learned that nothing had happened to them.
